    NUFCOR URANIUM LIMITED
    FILING OF PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS
    Nufcor Uranium Limited ("NUL") today announces that it has filed a preliminary long form prospectus in each of the provinces and
territories of Canada to qualify the distribution for the sale to the public (the "Offering") of new ordinary shares in the capital of NUL
(the "New Shares"). Canaccord Capital Corporation ("CCC") will act as the lead agent for a syndicate of agents for the proposed Offering
including Deutsche Bank Securities Limited (together, the "Agents"). The Agents will offer the New Shares, on a reasonable endeavours basis,
pursuant to the terms of an agency agreement to be entered into between NUL and the Agents prior to closing of the Offering.
    The Offering may also occur by private placement in the United Kingdom and in certain other jurisdictions in Europe, and in the United
States pursuant to applicable exemptions from registration under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  
    The Offering is currently expected to close in the third quarter of 2008. The number of New Shares to be offered and the offer price
have yet to be determined.  Subject to NUL's Articles of Association, no share in the capital of NUL (including the New Shares) shall be
issued at a discount to its prevailing net asset value. NUL will provide an update on the Offering in due course.
    NUL intends to use the proceeds of the Offering primarily to finance the acquisition of uranium. Under a letter agreement dated 18 June
2008 between NUL and Nufcor Capital Limited ("NCL"), NUL has engaged NCL to assist it with effecting purchases of uranium using the net
proceeds of the Offering.  
    The Offering is subject to certain conditions, including but not limited to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including
applicable stock exchange and securities regulatory authority approvals, and admission of the entire issued and to be issued share capital
of NUL to trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX").  
    When issued, the New Shares will be credited as fully paid and will rank equally in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of
US$0.01 each in the capital of NUL.  NUL intends to apply to London Stock Exchange plc (the "LSE") for the New Shares to be admitted to
trading on AIM.
    In light of the continued development of NUL's activities and operations and its proposed listing on the TSX, the board of directors of
NUL has appointed Anthony Pickford as Chief Executive Officer of the company with effect from 14 May 2008. Mr Pickford has been a director
of NUL since the admission of its shares to trading on AIM in July 2006. The board of directors of NUL is delighted that he has agreed to
act as Chief Executive Officer.  
    In addition, the board of directors of NUL has appointed David Preston as Chief Financial Officer of the company with effect from 23
June 2008.  In his role as managing director of Mercator Group, a Guernsey-based regulated fiduciary and financial services group, Mr
Preston has overseen the preparation of NUL's financial and NAV reports since its shares were admitted to trading on AIM. His appointment as
Chief Financial Officer is intended to formalise his role for the company in this regard. Mr Preston will continue to also act as managing
director of Mercator Group.
    Certain amendments to NUL's Articles of Association have been requested by the TSX in connection with the proposed Offering.
Accordingly, at the next annual general meeting of NUL's shareholders, NUL intends to seek shareholder approval to amend its Articles of
Association as follows:  

    *     to provide that only fully paid and non-assessable shares in the capital of NUL shall be issued by NUL and that shares in the
capital of NUL shall not be issued until the consideration for the shares is fully paid in money or in property or past services that are
not less in value than the fair equivalent of the money that NUL would have received if the shares had been issued for money;

    *     to remove NUL's right to make a call on shareholders in respect of any monies which are unpaid on their shares (a "Call Right");
and 

    *     to delete requirement that a shareholder forfeit or surrender its shares for failing to make a payment in connection with a Call
Right.

    Further details of the Offering, including the risks associated with an investment in NUL and the matters referred to above, are
contained in the preliminary prospectus which will be available on NUL's website, www.nufcoruranium.com, and under NUL's profile at
www.sedar.com.
